    Hi,

    I’m having an issue with getting Disqus to show up on my Page: http://founderorigins.com/university-business

    – I downloaded the Disqus extension (Addon –> Extensions)
    – I enabled Disqus Plugin (Addon -> Disqus Comments: clicked enabled, created a disqus account, added the shortname
    – I enabled Discussions (Page –> Screen Options –> Clicked the “Discussion” box –> Scrolled down to the Discussion Tab and clicked “Allow Comments”. I unclicked “trackback/pingback”
    – I also have comments enabled on settings (Settings –> Discussion –> “Allow people to post comments on new articles”)

    How come I still cant see the Disqus comments? Should I install the Disqus Plugin instead of using the X-theme Disqus extension?

    Regards,

    Wilson

    Hi there,

    Disqus comments should be activated as well in pages if comments are enabled in the discussion setting of the page. I have check the page you have link and there seems to be a Javascript error that is stopping Disqus to be displayed. With this, you could try testing for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.

    Hi,

    I narrowed down the problem and it has to do with Page Attributes, and not Plugins.

    In the page dashboard, under Page Attributes –> Template… if the “Default” is selected, Disqus comments will show up. However, if I change the template to “Blank – Container | Header, Footer” then the Disqus comments dissapear.

    I’m guessing by changing the template, it’s overriding the Disqus extension. How can I fix this?

    Thanks!

    Nvm, got it working! I’ll just keep it in the “Default Template” mode
